You really think college scouts used color film on high school players in nine... teen... sixty... three? And that high school players hotdogged it like that? This was before Cassius Clay became Muhammad Ali and before Joe Namath went Broadway. No, this ain't THAT Reggie Jackson.
That is not the Reggie Jackson who played baseball. He did go to Arizona State on a football scholarship, but, A, high school football teams did not have color film in 1963, and B, football players did not flop into the end zone back then. That player's name may be "Reggie Jackson," but he's not "Mr. October."
Nice return. I remember when Reggie Jackson played for the Yankees. He looks a lot smaller now that he's playing football, but he's got awesome speed for someone in his 60's.
